    The Changing Nature of Science Rint Task 1

    (McPhee, 2010) The scientists of the 19th centuries renewed their interest in the Atomic Theory •John Dalton suggested that all matter was composed of small particles - atoms, each element had a different atom and a different atomic weight, theorized that atoms could not be created or destroyed in chemical reactions (1804) •In his attempt to classify the elements by principles, Dmitri Mendeleev arranged the elements by their atomic weight, discovering the existence of periodicity of the atoms (1869) •J.J. Thomson discovered electrons through his cathode ray experiment and proved that atoms were divisible(1897) (McPhee, 2010), ("A brief history," 2005) 20th century concepts and discoveries •Earnest Rutherford discovered that there was a small, dense positively charged nucleus, predicted the existence of neutrons, stated that electrons move rapidly in the empty space around the nucleus (1909-11) •In continuation of his experiments J.J. Thompson determined that all particles had charges that were multiples of the same number •In 1913 Robert Millikan accurately determined the mass of election…

    Summary Of The Disappearing Spoon

    The Disappearing Spoon by Sam Kean, examines each of the elements on the periodic table. The Disappearing Spoon focuses on the history of the periodic table by recounting stories about each element on the table, and the scientist that discovered it. For each element, Kean provides an extensive backstory about its origin, the common (or uncommon) uses of the element, and other interesting tidbits. The author begins the novel with a general physical description of the periodic table as a whole; he discusses the names of the groups of elements and their corresponding properties, atoms and their three major sub-particles, the activity of electrons, and the organization of the table. Next, Sam Keane shares specific details about both drama involved…

    Dmitri Mendeleev

    The achievement with which Mendeleev's name will associated with was his creation of the periodic law. He began by making cards for each of the known elements. On each card, he recorded an element's atomic weight, valence electron, and other chemical and physical properties. Then he tried arranging the cards in various ways to see if any pattern could be created. Eventually he was successful. He saw that, when the elements were arranged in ascending order according to their weights, their properties were shown in an orderly manner. He also found three places in the periodic table where elements were missing.…

    The periodic table

    In 1771, a French tax collector named Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier had not discovered any elements but he was keenly interested in science and analysed the discoveries of others. He was the first to truly recognise the elements. He identified some elements properly and disproved the existence of others, such as phlogiston. He also co-authored the Methode de Nomeclature Chimique, which was used as the standard for naming new elements.…
